REAR BEARING REPEATED FAILURE 700 90

I need Your hepl !!!!!!!!!!!

I changed rotors for new ones and replaced rear bearing that was separated and everything was fine for a while.2 months later I started to feel slight pulsation in the braking. Today I discovered that I have axial play in the rear bearing again. I cracked the bearing again. Rear axle has about 0.01 in axial play. I could move the halfshaft in and out by this much. My brakes started to pulsate again.

What is causing bearing separation. Could this be a caliper? Both pistons are moving in when compressed with c-clamp.

Or maybe I have worn out axle housing. It looks like my bearing is beeing held in place by 2 oil seals. One on each side of the bearing unit. Then there is a pressure plate thar compresses whole assembly.

Is anyone aware of any shims that are beeng used to compensate for play?

What is going on?

If I need to change rear axle can I get one with differential lock?

Anyone please HELP !!!!!!!!

Robert
